SIMEX'2014, December 3-5, 2014, The Hotel, Brussels, Belgium, Conference Fees


Conference Fees

As this event is being held in Belgium, we are required to add on a 21% VAT surcharge. In order for you to receive a VAT refund, have your registration paid by your university, institute or company as they have a VAT number. If you prepay personally it is possible you cannot reclaim the VAT. All prices below are without VAT.

VAT Information

In order to reclaim the VAT you (if you have a VAT number) or your institution/company will need to contact:
Centraal B.T.W.-kantoor voor buitenlandse belastingplichtigen - Teruggaven
Zaveltoren - 24ste verdieping
J. Stevensstraat 7
B-1000 Brussels, Belgium
Tel: +32.2.552.59.33+32.2.552.59.33 or 34

Using the appropriate form in Dutch-French-German (the English equivalent is there to get you through the document as the layout is 90% the same). If you are an individual with a VAT number and you have an electronic ID-Card you can use the INTERVAT website to reclaim your VAT. (the English version can be set up once you have clicked on "naar de toepassing" and have logged in with your ID card reader).
If you have none of the above write a letter after the conference with the EUROSIS invoice and receipt attached to the address on the left.

How does it apply to me?

  • I'm from Belgium
  • If you are from Belgium then the normal 21% VAT applies and you get it back through the normal quarterly VAT tax return from your company or institution

  • I'm from the EU
  • If you live in the EU then you pay 21% tax and you either get it back through the Tax office of your company or institution (for this it has to have a VAT number) or you contact the address above with a copy of form direct. In both cases you have a VAT number.

  • I'm from outside the EU
  • If you live outside the EU, you pay 21% VAT and need to use the VAT form (preferably the English one) and insert your incorporation number into the form instead of the VAT number and contact the address above.
